This should decipher literally into the following:
\\\\$smb_server\$smb_share" $password -U $username -D $smb_dir -c 'dir
$smb_file;'
I would suggest trying this line instead:
$exe="$smb_client \"\\\\$smb_server\\$smb_share\" $password -U $username -D
$smb_dir -c 'dir $smb_file ;'";
which would create:
\\$smb_server\$smb_share" $password -U $username -D $smb_dir -c 'dir $smb_file;'
If you are trying to make the following:
//$smb_server/$smb_share" $password -U $username -D $smb_dir -c 'dir $smb_file;'
then from what I recall you should be able to just use:
$exe="$smb_client \"//$smb_server/$smb_share\" $password -U $username -D
$smb_dir -c 'dir $smb_file ;'";
However if that doesn't create the commend properly you may need to do this:
$exe="$smb_client \"\/\/$smb_server\/$smb_share\" $password -U $username -D
$smb_dir -c 'dir $smb_file ;'";
I hope that wasn't too confusing, and that it fixes your problem. However it
would be good to know what the error is, if it is the command itself or if its
just producing a PHP syntaxerror.
